Chapter 222: Generator Plan (Part I)
Freire's muscular figure was immediately stuck in the path of Cardiff City striker Bobby, who shouted "Long live Portsmouth" and then met him, with N'Golo Kante and Luiz, who had retreated to midfield, following left and right. The act of shouting slogans is so stupid that no one like Mendy would do such a thing, but at this moment he suddenly had the urge to jump up, shout "Long live France" and kick the ball all the way through everyone's defenses. But he quickly dismissed the crazy idea, and instead allowed himself to settle deeper.
Frell and Bobby collided with each other with the sound of bones colliding, and his shoulder sliced the poor striker's nose entirely, a confrontation that was too easy for Frere. He sat on the cold bench in the first team for months, and Freer couldn't remember whether it was three months or four months, and all he could remember in his mind was a few days when he woke up in the middle of the night, covered in sweat and terrified. He felt that he was particularly "thin" in the confrontation with the main players, but after a long time, he got used to it, and in the end he was able to hit others. It was a change of gear, he made his first start against Arsenal in the FA Cup after a couple of substitute plays, Freire remembers playing about 70 minutes and trying to look a little more sophisticated and mature, and after that game the coach gave him encouragement and when he came back to the base everyone greeted him with a light eye, it was a recognition, his promotion to the first team was a training camp for Pons, a sign for Coach Don, and he wanted not to disgrace the club.
This is his character, taking the responsibility on his shoulders, and it is also the driving force that drives him forward, Portsmouth's vice-captain Pierce is his idol, but the vice-captain has been injured since the beginning of this year, and Derby County, sprained his ankle in the first 24 minutes, such an injury The team doctor and teammates thought that it would be better in two or three weeks, but I didn't expect that after three weeks, just being able to walk, and when I run, it would hurt sharply, and then after two or three weeks, it still didn't work, and everyone didn't know when it would get better. Freire overheard the conversation between the coach and Pierce during training, Pierce said that he wanted to retire, but did not dare to tell his wife and daughter, and Hydward comforted him, saying that although the team has a large number of midfielders, there must be a place for Pierce. The vice-team is no longer a young man in his twenties, you must know that some of Hydeward's training is too much, and many young people can't bear it, but Pierce has never discounted it once, he never drinks, always goes to bed early and wakes up early, lives a rigid and self-disciplined life, and in order to prolong his career, Pierce quit his favorite sweets.
For Freire, the coach asked him to be a substitute for N'Golo Kante, so he had to do everything to complete the task, and the substitute is always a more tiring job than the main team, Ward told him. Because the substitute must imitate the main style of play, Kante can't run to death, he has to run to death, Kante tackles well, he also has to tackle well, in addition to the substitute must have its own characteristics, and even sometimes have to play multiple positions, otherwise when the main force is injured and there are no players with similar characteristics to make up for it, it is a great harm to the tactical system.
The brief encounter with Bobby lasted less than a minute, and as blood gushed out, Freire blocked Cardiff's path like a tower.
The Blue Jays' attack was not deterred, they reversed course and detoured from the right side, a strategy that stayed with the whole game, and Hydward's heavy group was dismissed by Nil Warnock, which also suffered a complete defeat in the first half.
That place used to be Margery's defensive area, but Mustafi was never there in this game, heading in Rudiger, attacking with the ball from Meunier and even appearing once or twice in the opposition box. Frerell clenched his hand into a fist, it wasn't his defensive area, he had to react quickly, "Damn! He cursed and rushed towards the goal as fast as he could, it was too late to block Mustafi's position, and perhaps in a few seconds Enyeama would be on the move, and he had to quickly establish a final line of defense before the opponent bombarded the goal.
Enyeama came out and the midfielder, Kaoy, scrambled to shoot under tremendous pressure and the ball went between the Nigerian's legs, his style was not a Neuer-style goalkeeper, his strength was goal-line skills, and the attack could only be considered average. Enyeama couldn't help but glance back as the ball rolled quickly towards goal......
Freel was still a step slower, he had stretched out his long legs as much as he could to hook, but it was still a little close, and when he closed his eyes in despair, the imaginary ball hitting the net did not happen, Ngolo. N'Golo Kante fell to the ground a metre in front of the goal line and kicked the ball out of bounds, and N'Golo Kante, who was supposed to be planning the attack, appeared at the back line like a ghost, and Freer looked at his team-mate's outstretched hand as if he had been struck by lightning.
Kante walked over to help his team-mate to his feet, "Mission cancelled," he said, holding a note with some text and a new position in his hand. At this moment, Hydeward, who was on the sidelines, took out two apples from the backpack he was carrying, sat down in the command area very casually, took a bite, and watched everything on the court calmly.
Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and Ward knows that every strategy he has must not be right, some have serious consequences, and some are not, he is not Zhuge Liang who is almost as wise as a demon, and there is no way to predict the prophet. When Napoleon arrived on St. Helena, the British officer Elphinstone gave him a delicate set of chess, in order to thank Napoleon for treating his captured brother at the Battle of Waterloo, but the disheartened Napoleon did not find the mystery hidden in the chess pieces, a certain pawn in chess, its base can be opened, and it hides a map that can help Napoleon escape back to France, This man who had spent his whole life was disheartened and did not discover this secret in his life.
Just as the Germans defeated the French in 1940 bypassing Maginot and through the rugged Ardennes Mountains, the Anglo-French forces staged a miraculous Dunkirk retreat at the seaport.
Hydward made the same decision as Churchill had done decades earlier, retreating because they were equally convinced that wars were not won by retreat, but that retreat would breed victory.
Freire read Hedward's decision in the space of a few seconds as the coach crossed out Mustafi from the back line and replaced him with him, a position the Englishman had never played before. N'Golo Kante and Norris were in midfield, with Luis Brent deployed in midfield and strikers Jamie Vardy and Sadio Mane. 4212, nine people, except for Mustafi, who was crossed out.
Hydward's refusal to use a former talented defender Mustafi even if he has never played as a central defender is self-evident: I don't know if you will succeed in the future, but at least you can't succeed with me, and all I can give you is respect for the last ten minutes.
"Hang Mustafi after the game," Hydward said to the assistant coach next to him, still holding the apple he had just nibbled on, his expression becoming calmer, and his coldness and calmness made everyone in Portsmouth feel a little tremble.
Victory, not rejoicing, defeating, not discouraged, with thunder in the chest and face like a peaceful lake, can worship the general, that's all.
